Hasedera has a huge area dedicated to hydrangeas, with so many different varieties. Make sure to give yourself plenty of time to explore every corner and really take it all in.

Shirakawa-go Light-up Event
Located in the UNESCO World Heritage-listed gassho-zukuri village of Shirakawa-go, this event, held on specific days in January and February, draws large crowds annually. The sight of the iconic, thatched triangular roofs of the gassho-style houses blanketed in snow, illuminated against the night, evokes a fairy-tale-like look and feel.
Seeing this World Heritage site lit up on a winter night was truly unforgettable. The fairy-tale atmosphere is just magical.

Gifu Castle
The Symbol of Gifu towers on top of Mt. Kinka 329m above sea level. During the age of provincial wars, Saito Dosan resided. When Oda Nobunaga became the lord, it became the homebase of his ambition to rule the nation.
Gifu Castle is located on Mt. Kinka, and it's known for being easy to defend and hard to attack. If you don't want to tire yourself out, you can just take the ropeway up.

Meijo Park
A spacious, multipurpose park covering approximately 200 acres. With flower beds filled with seasonal blooms, an expansive lawn, Ofuke Pond offering panoramic views of Nagoya Castle, and sports facilities including a baseball field, the park is a popular place for Nagoya residents to relax. Meijo Park Flower Plaza features a bright, naturally lit atrium and sunroom and hosts a variety of exhibitions related to flowers and greenery.
After visiting Nagoya Castle, you can take a walk in the park. There are lots of wisteria varieties blooming from late April to early May.
